Merriam, Kansas

Open seasonally Memorial Day to Labor Day, take the plunge and escape the heat at the Merriam Aquatic Center. Merriam Aquatic Center fits your budget and is healthy, family fun for all ages!

Small Children Our zero depth (beach entry) pool is a special place for your little thrill seekers, with a small dolphin slide for toddlers, and an “old man and the sea” themed slide for older children (maximum height for riders is 41-inches). Pulsating water jets, three water features (Ollie Octopus, Seabiscuit Seahorse, Freddy Frog), and a floating lobster add to the fun. A dolphin fountain spray in the center of the pool is sure to cool you off! A shade awning is provided over part of the pool to protect you from the sun’s harmful elements.

Older Children, Teenagers, Adults & the Young at Heart We offer two exciting water slides. A 150-foot open flume slide and 135-foot enclosed tube slide will twist and turn you down an exciting ride, then splash you into the cool pool below. The pool is 4-feet deep and guarded by our experienced lifeguards.

Lap Swimmers & Divers You will love our beautiful 50-meter pool, equipped with two 1-meter diving boards and one 3-meter diving board. A 25-meter lap lane is available during all operating hours.

Break Time We provide two concession patios to seat you comfortably. Our concession stand offers a full variety of reasonably priced snacks from pizza to ice cream. There are four permanent shade structures to protect you from the sun.
